As of Nov 2015, Manitoba Bone and Joint Health personnel consist of a president, two incorporating officers, a board of directors, and several associates. Associates are individuals who have been acquainted with the activities of MBJH who are invited to contribute opinion and expertise at board meetings and activities of MBJH, most notably the Nov 2015 conference “The Aging Musculoskeletal System”.
Most involved with MBJH are volunteers, with nominal salaries for legal and accounting work.
Funds are primarily the residue of a previously registered charitable organization (Manitoba Orthopedic Foundation: MOF), and currently managed by the MBJH board functioning also as a residual MOF board. Most of these funds have been dedicated to the AMS conference, provided by MBJH as a free of charge conference to the health care community and broader society with an interest in a collaborative Bone and Joint Care provincial system. The other financial support is a monthly corporate contribution to help defray ongoing costs of board meetings.
